Waterproof toilet paper dispenser/holder

We are using this container as our extra toilet paper holder.  A roll of standard-sized RV TP fits in it and the top seals with a gasket so the extra roll stays completely dry in the shower until needed.
To modify this as a vertical TP dispenser:
1) Pull the center cardboard tube out of the TP.
2) Take an old CD and place on top of the roll of tubeless-TP inside the container.  
3) Start by pulling out a sheet from the center through the hole in the CD. This way, the waterproof lid can still be used during showering and the TP stays dry.

A much better alternative to the CD would be to cut a donut out of acrylic sheet or thin plywood, or just cut a larger hole in the CD so the TP pulls smoothly. Remember to sand the edges of the hole so it doesn't tear the TP.

	Those lock-and-locks are amazing. That's all my wife uses for leftover food storage.

	Hmm, interesting. I've been looking for a good sealable container like this - I'm stocking up our food reserves at home and need something that's odor and mouse proof.
